Jessica 'pant pant' Biel to star in BLADE: TRINITY!
Hey folks, Harry here... Looks like Jessica Biel is joining the cast of David Goyer's BLADE: TRINITY... still no word if the Wachowski's will sue or if it's ok, due to the whole AOL/TIME/WARNER synergistic approach to stuff... but you just knew after REVOLUTIONS comes out this November, Warner Bros. was looking to capture that whole whiz bang, and what better way than to throw Trinity into a BLADE movie... just a sec... oh. Um, nevermind, I get it. Sorry, just having a blonde moment. Hey, my eyebrows are blonde, I'm allowed. ANYWAYS... So - word is Jessica here is going to be playing Kris Kristofferson's daughter, and i believe she's gonna be kicking vampire ass... Upon observing her in person on the set of TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE... I believe ass-kicking is very up her alley. On top of being a beautiful actress, she's also cool as hell. She wants to set up an Alamo Drafthouse franchise in Los Angeles. How cool is that? We'll see if she does it, but she mentioned it to me here in Austin. Apparently she flipped for the place while she was living here. Oh... in case the goofy pic wasn't what you wanted, here's a more dignified picture! You know me... I love my extremes!

Do a shot every time Harry namedrops. You'll be freakin' hammered within 2.3 seconds.

I hope Leatherface rapes her up the ass with his chainsaw in the remake. Not that I have anything against her personally but I think it would make for a great moment for cinematic genius. Too bas the MPAA has such a problem with everything anal (except their own attitude, of course).

perhaps a few spider's legs? little bit of hairy pie, furry burger in this flick?

Not very, then.

by heleno
Is she meant to be a vampire then? Sheesh. I don't think the Wachowskis would get far suing for the use of Trinity if that's what Harry's getting at. It's not exactly an innovative name. Unless Carrie Anne Moss appears in black leather in the film as a hacker, I don't see no breach of copyright. Anyway, is this Jessica girl any relation to Eighties dance sensation jennifer Biel? And godoffireinhell, you need a serious attitude adjustment and fast. Grow up little boy.

She's supposed to be dead. Is she going to be the equivalent of a female Hannibal King, and rebel against her own kind (assuming she didn't die, and was turned into a vampire)?

Unlike the many generic young actresses of today under 35, Jessica Biel actually has some curves to her. She actually looks like an actress who doesn't wear a size zero or smaller outfit.

by big bad clone
No not really, but have you noticed all the products named Matrix (cars, cell phone places, an oil company) or Trinity (Blade 3; strippers). Maybe if that Moira Kelly show, Trinity came out after the Matrix it would have made it more than three episodes.
-
She already looks like a vampire, so they could save some $$$ on makeup. What a skag.
-
I will only commend this if nudity is involved. And more than there was in FvJ. I need more blade as much as I need Wesley Snipes stealing my uber buffy videos for slaying pointers.
-
So, is the movie called BLADE:TRINITY or was the actress who played Trinity in Matrix (Carrie-Ann Moss) suppossed to be in Blade 3 but was robbed of the part by Jessica Biel? Harry's article makes NO SENSE!! I dig you Harry but write clearer.
-
Starring Jessica Biel and Brittany Murphy. Blade must deal with anorexic vampire sluts who want him to give them his long wooden stake over and over. Featuring more wire-fu than you can shake a stick at, and even less lighting than the average Tim Burton movie! Seriously considering shooting it in 3D, but afraid that the bony girls in this movie might make people think they're about to get a stick in the eye.
-
they really need to make up for the disaster that was Blade II
-
My list goes:
1. Blade 2, 2. Blade 1, 3. X2 4. Daredevil 5. Hulk 6. X-Men 7. Spider-Man.
I have complete faith that Blade 3 will tie up the trilogy with an awesome finale. Daid Groyer seems to be really invested in this character. And Jessica Biel is hot. I'll be there on opening day for this. -
neither Blade movies left me with any desire to own the DVD, they were still both good, and I try to watch Blade whenever TNT repeats it. Part of the problem with the Blade movies is a lack of interesting vampire plot. All the vampires do basically what any evil villian does, try to take over the world. I'd like to see some vampires do something like try to blow up the sun or something. -
You're kidding...Jessica Biel? If anyone is a dead ringer for Abby Chase, it would be Jaime Pressly. James King is a close second. Biel could maybe play Sydney Chase if she develops the Aussie accent.
-
You are so right. But that can never happen, because we are their meal-ticket. I don't like the whole idea of their supposed superiority. Hmmm. They are so evil. THEY ARE SO STUPID. They are stuck perpetually in adolescence, glomming off the rest of the human race. No vampire inventors. No nothin. Oh yah, they are real tough. Put em all at Chernobyl or Nagasaki and they'd die too! Gimme a break. If Dubya found some vamp's nest he'd take it out with tactical nukes. Vapires vs. Nukes? I don't think so.

or is it going to be a franchise spin-off like "The Next Karate Kid"? If that's the case, BAD IDEA. Whisler is no Miyagi and "The Next Karate Kid" is no good.
-
David Goyer hates the Trinity subtitle and hopes New Line will drop it before the movie opens. He said so at the screening of the first Blade a few weeks ago at the Arclight theater in Hollywood. He'd rather it just be called Blade III. He knows that the word Trinity makes people think of Matrix right now. He even polled us in the audience to see who liked Blade: Trinity as a title and everyone stayed silent or booed, and he smiled and said he'd "tell New Line that tomorrow." So far though, they're obviously not budging.

She's not only a hottie (see those sexy googly eyes in that first pic) but a pretty strong actress too. I can see this working. The only problem I have with the cast so far is Ryan 'Van Wilder' Reynolds playing Hannibal King.
-
An easy enough connection to make (as indeed I did the first time I heard Biel's name), given the similarities of their names, but I do believe you're referring to Jennifer Beals of Flashdance immortality.
-
Wesley single-handly launched Marvel from direct-to-video to movie mainstream. Love it or hate it (Personally, the Blade movies are pretty damn good action flicks), the Blade triology is responsible for the re-birth of Marvel. Avi needs to let Wesley do Black Panther- I would love to see that.
Oh, I guess this white chick is hot but she kind of looks like a herion addict in that last picture.
Smooth...out! -
...He stated quite clearly in the first film that his family had been killed by vampires. As far as we knew, he died as well in the first movie. The second installment performed an act of narrative contortion to bring him back and now it looks like they'll perform the same "service" for his family in Blade 3. At the rate they're revisioning and expanding the Whistler character in the series, he's rapidly becoming the Boba Fett of vampire films.
-
It is a fact that God, Jesus and the holy spirit are NOT 1. 3=1 is just ridiculous. if thats true then why and how could god die only to come back to life? and in the bible the holy spirit is described as an gods active force, not some entity that has a lot of power.
So in conclusion, Christianity adopting trinity as holy doctrine is as bad as allowing all those child molestors called priests to continue their "sacred service"
-
The "holy trinity" (God as 3 persons) was actually a pet cause of the Emporer Charlemagne.
He told the christians that they either come up with a single credo (and he supports the church) or they don't and bad things happen.
Only a small sect supported it initially), but since the Emporer thought it was a good idea it was adopted as part of the creed. -

by big bad clone
The Trinity is a thought, an interpertation of God and Its different aspects. Flawed, perhaps. Outright wrong, maybe. Frankly, if there is a creator, don't you think that we wee humans might come a little bit short in understanding Its nature. The sheer scope of such a being is subject to endless debate and hurts my head. Anyways, I like the word Trinity. I even wanted to name my daughter Trinity (this was before the Matrix). Thankfully, I chose a different name since a thousand strippers and porn stars call themselves Trinity now.

It feels like Blade II was a movie for diehards and fanboys, with the casting of Ron Pearlman and Donnie Yen. And now Blade III is for teeny-boppers with two teens from Van Wilder and 7th Heaven. New Line Cinema is obviously only out for cold hard cash and lots of it. Hopefully David Goyer can steer the movie away from their trendy, superficial agenda.
-
Is Frank Drake gonna' be in this as well? Considering he was a H-U-G-E part of the old Tomb Of Dracula series (and Dracula's great, great, great grandson). Plus, if he is, is gonna' have that rediculously huge gun with the blades and shit on it?
-
I dunno; on that Punk'd episode where the little kid made like he wanted her to whip 'em out in Playboy, she looked pretty uncomfortable. It made for great television, though. Uh.....the Blade series: It's okay. Could have been better considering it had a deceptively rich source material to work with, but I commend it for getting MARVEL some cred in Hollywood. Both directors did what they wanted to do and both turned out good action movies. Goyer's probably not the director that Norrington or del Toro are, but since he wrote all three screenplays, the quality of this film will probably be in the same ballpark as the first two. And I like the 'Trinity' tagline. Sorry.

Jeezus H. Christ in a track suit, Harry has spoken to a woman who was billed second to Freddy Prinze Jr! Holee Shit. That's the first step in sleeping with her! Well, no -- the first step would be being someone else. But anyway...keep dropping 'em names. I'll keep not being impressed!
-
...but the excitement got to my typing fingers and I was all over "home row." Apologies to Freddy Prinze Jr.

Dude, are you really trying to turn this into a forum for theological debate? Seems a tad misguided. But whatever. I would point out, however, that most religions involve lapses in modern-day logic. A colossal suspension of disbelief if you will. Believers call it "faith." Christianity -- in all of its denominations -- has no shortage of such doctrines. (Humanity can only be forgiven for original sin -- as defined and imposed on us by God -- by killing his son. Huh?) But I will not go into that here. Not the place. Nor will I point out that historians know that Christ was actually more a political than religious figure and that taking his teachings out of the context of the politics of the day turns them into a completely different animal. But I do thank you for sharing your biblical scholarship with us.

"Song to the Siren" and it's by This Mortal Coil. Somehow, the song was actually MISSING from the otherwise pretty swell Lost Highway soundtrack..hmm.
-
Say what fella? Africa is a COUNTRY?!? Umm, no it isn't.
-
It really disturbs the hell out of me that Harry couldn't find better pictures of Jessica to put up.
-
She fits in well with the vampire genre- tall, dark, sophisticated, sexy. It would be more interesting to have her come from left field as something other than Whistlers daughter.
Blade 1 was pretty decent plotwise, Blade 2 was a damn good action flick, hoping Blade 3 mixes the best of both and finishes up a winner. I do agree Arvad owes the Blade people alot of credit for helping prove comic book movies were doable (and they did it taking a B-league hero and turning him mainstream - its the only reason I have any hope for the Ghostrider movie) -
the first one did i wanted to see the second one but i never got round to doing it
-
You guys are nuts. She is hot and totally fine for the part.
Blade II was excellent. A great spin from the first one. But it still didnt put blade at enough risk.
Blade III should be about how, on his travels to find the origin of the vampire in russia or something, blade meets another one like him. ANother day walker with his capabilities. But is this new guy or gal good or bad? and what do they want?
-
Honkey Solo, Africa's a country now is it? Your Norwegian grandparents are doing backflips in their graves! Have some pride in your Scandinavian heritage, Jesus H. Christ. *Falls down into a trance and begins speaking with an altered voice*: Spleunker_Gregg thinks "Blade 3: the Hulk" is a good idea...That would get his ass into theatre for sure (IN JOKE)...In the year 2019, Jessica Biel and her 7th Heaven castmates will be tried at The Hague for crimes against humanity...This will occur in the wake of Oprah Winfrey's anal electrocution at Nuremburg, and the infamous Full House purges ordered by fifty-one year old bed-ridden President Gary Coleman.
-
These could just be more pernicious rumors, but I hope that they'd have more sense than that. Considering her lineage is probably not thematically integral to the story (then again, maybe that's where "Trinity" comes from in the first place), it seems like they'd just be trying to milk as much drama as possible out of the movie by bringing back one of Whistler's kin. It's bad enough they had to bend the rules to ressurect the old man himself, if they employ the same technique two movies in a row, there'd be a lot of scoffing. At least from me.

Jessica's a hottie...and why the hell would Hollywood make DANGE
by commando cody
Love that second photo. And Jessica kicking vampire ass is fine by me, so long as they put her in some tight leather costume all her own to showcase that delicious form. Yee-haw! As for her being Abbie Chase, why the hell would anyone in Hollywood sign a production check to make DANGER GIRL at THIS point? All Danger Girl ever was was a comic that (1) never shipped on time despite repeated assurances the creators would get their act together (but never did)... (2) when it DID appear it was a eighth rate book lacking any originality, where every plot device, character and even the action scenes were direct and sometimes heavy handed rip-offs of existing movies... and (3) why does Hollywood need to waste money on Danger Girl (and I do mean waste) when we've already got the CHARLIES ANGELS movie franchise which has now essentially tanked and there's ALREADY a TV knock-off available with SHE SPIES? What, Hollywood now needs to make a copy of a copy of a copy of a concept no one is buying anymore? Yeahhh...(rolling eyes) THAT'S original thinking. Good move, studio heads. Man, no wonder TV is called a vast wasteland!
-
Weepin', creepin' Jesus, people can be off-topic at these things. Anyway, I read this nugget at a couple of other sites, and I'm not sure what to think of it. First of all, I dig the Blade movies, especially 2!! Sorry if that's not anybody's idea of cinematic perfection. I just thought it was a old-fashioned damn good time. But, I'm... ambivalent about these announcements. I mean, Christ, the last I heard, the third movie was supposed to feature Blade's old buddies Frank Drake and Hannibal King, to which I'm sure many of us longtime comic fans responded with a "Hell yeah!" Now, they've invented this Abigail Whistler character (Whyyyy?), and RyanfuckingVanwilderReynolds is supposed to play Hannibal. Funny. When I was thinking of actors to play a hard-boiled detective/ self-loathing vampire, he absolutely did not cross my mind. Hmmmm! I am trying to keep the faith... David Goyer's a talented cat, and they managed to make the first two movies not be godawful. But, right about now, Blade doesn't look like it's gonna go out with a bang. Yeah, this is one 'o those situations where i wouldn't mind being mistaken.

Variety reported that Ashley Scott was up for this role earlier this week, so I was pissed when I heard Jessica Biel got it. Check out Ashley in black leather here: http://www.birdsofpreyonline.com/gallery/ascott/BP01_ASCT13d.jpg
And as a blonde here: http://movies.yahoo.com/shop?d=hc&id=1804509315&cf=pg&photoid=488665&intl=us
She had a small part in A.I. as Gigolo Jane, and as Colin Farrell's girlfriend in S.W.A.T. -
It's about time Tomb Of Dracula got some props! And yeah...Ryan Reynolds is completely wrong for the part of Hannibal. Jessica Biel as Whistler's niece or daughter or whatever I can take or leave. Why not just use her as Rachel VanHelsing? And yeah...is Frank Drake gonna' even be in this? If they're usin' Dracula, they should use 'im.
-
Warners to sue over title? Maybe not.
-
yeah yeah

Since when did Africa become a country?
Also, if a Japanese "citizen" is living in America, (by America, do you mean the United States?; Canada?; Mexico?; Central America?; South America?)wouldn't that Japanese citizen be Japanese because they wouldn't be "American- or I guess you mean a citizen of the United States" since they are not citizens.
Oh, and another thing...Race is a fiction invented by Europeans. I refer to myself as either Black or African-American because African-American is used to describe the origin of my ancestory and it acknowledges my home (America). I'm sorry if that offens you but the legacy of my race's history in this country requires me to acknowledge my past as well as my present. We do not use it to refer to "color," we use it to refer to our cultural idenity.
Oh, I am not a nigga or Negro...when I become a nigga I'll let you know.
Smooth...out! -
This might be good if they have some good Vampire shit in it, I am pretty sure after Underworld comes out they are going to have trouble making a cool vampire movie... Also all this stuff about ripping off the Matrix, there is a word Trinity that was around before the Matrix, I just hate when people really like a new movie and then say everything rips off of it, for example. Equilibrium came out and everyone said its ripping off the Matrix even tho they didn't see, just because a movie is set in the future and is dark doesn't mean its ripping off the Matrix, actually Equilibrium was better than the Matrix now that I think of it.... Also I was watching the trailer to Timeline and someone behind me said "They are just ripping off Lord of The Rings", this guy is a fucking idiot since the book came out years before the movies were even finished filming... I guess what I am trying to say is, some people are really stupid
